Worst experience ever

Spend a whole afternoon to change a set of front break and the results was huge squeezing noise. Went back to the shop and the manager tested driving the car and told me it was OK( WHAT ? and the manager refused me to sit with him!!!) They denied everything and refuse to do ANYTHING to help. I have to go back to dealer and spend another 400 bucks to solve the problem.

After 3 month, I heard strange sound from... view more break and went back to the shop (have 1 yr warrenty on the new break). They checked and said they can change my break to ceramic one with extra charge. I said no, then suddently, the check engine light was ON when I took my car from the mechanic. Go back to manager and he said it WAS ON when I came in. Lier!!!

Worst experience and I swear I will NOT do any business with them. Be careful with them!!!!!!!
